Try lowest for vtt and 1210kHz for cpu. Also try to up your uncore clock to 17x.
ok I tried these settings. Also I pluged in the second CPU 12v connector. Nothing changed. Same freezes. No BSODīs. :confused:
I think without raising the vtt to 1.6v its not possible to get beyond 215bclk on my board.:shrug:
Hey guys...do I need the second 8pin for cpu in case of oc my w3520 to 4,6ghz?
On my GB Extreme it works! If I need it, can I take my 8pin PCIe connector?
Nope, second connector only comes into play when beyond 5GHz iirc. BTW, PCIe and EPS connectors are incompatible. ;)
/edit. I always use both connectors as it cannot be wrong at all. But to buy a new psu for that ain't worth it (unless the old one sucks anyway :D).
So I have a question about this board. I have some settings I like for 24/7 - 4.36GHZ / 1.38vcore / 12GB Mem - 830mhz 2:8 6-6-6-21 58 1T 1.62vdimm 1.425vtt. I have great temps (water & indigo-xtreme) and I'm LinX stable 20 passes with vdroop disabled.
The question is, what kind of degradation risk if any is there with vdroop disabled?
TX
Probably zero.
Hey guys can someone give me some settings for 211 bclk? thanks.
TX, for some reason I thought I had heard something about the new IMC in these chips being fragile to it. I may have been imagining that though.Quote:

I could get an HX1000W as a trade, which is sleeved red/black should i take it or keep mine?
Degradation is over rated, I mean if a component can live a year or a year and a half with no issues then fine by me, it can die after that as much as I care, I upgrade some of my PC component at least once ever 10~12 months!Quote:

Hey, I think the 850W should do, as long as you don't do SLI with 2 Fermi and the cpu at 5.5GHz :DQuote:

Yeah, but multi-card should not be my aim for gaming so far...fermi is ordered ;) but just one, you know? Benching for fun an gaming as addiction.
My hx850 is a very good psu. See one thread here in XS. Running with two 4870X2 and one 4870 on an x58 with highly overclocked CPU.
It won't struggle very early, but I don't know whether the CF needs the second one. Could anyone try to run it without the second lane? Maybe at 4,8GHz?
Hello.
I'm having some troubles with my little machine - it runs like a dream for the most part... but when i start gaming my computer suddenly bsods and cant seem to find my ssd in sata port 1. After a complete powerdown and a reseating of sata cables it suddenly pops up again like nothing happend. Some suggested that a voltage increase at ICH was the right way to fix it.
But before trying that i would like to hear if anyone of you got troubles like these?
Since your computer is blue-screening, I think you may need to adjust some other voltages as well (perhaps vcore, vtt and IOH or vDimm). But you are correct that the drives are handled by the ICH, and a slight boost in this voltage could help if pushing the bclk very hard. Care to post your BIOS settings?
You might also check to see which BIOS version you have, and see if a newer version corrects drive problems like what you are seeing.
Only thing changed is really the ram settings - 8-8-8-24-1T at 1.65 and then sat uncore at 3200.Quote:

I had the exact same problem when i first got my OCZ Vertx. OCZ released a firmware and fixed the problem since. Check the Corsair forum and stay tuned for next Firmware.Quote:

I was just wondering what is this 'Performance Mode' exactly? Yeah I get that it may make your pc a little faster but we the community need to know how this works exactly? I am sitting happy on the S227 bios and need a little bit of incentive to upgrade to the new one. Also if anyone has performance numbers, benchmarks validating 'Performance mode' please post them...
It makes your Turbo +2 (22x multi for i7 920 for example) mode become active more often when running single threaded applications.
Yeh, well I go through a ton of HW myself. I have killed core2 CPUs dead with excessive volts and I understand it's not really easy to do with even medium volts. The only thing I'm unsure about is IMC and how fragile it is. I have 12gb ram running nice and tight and I want it to last without changing settings in a couple months.Quote:

Any real improvements with the new BIOS, I would like to see more memory ratio and better Bclck generator, I do not like to set my Bclk to 201MHz if I want it to run at 200 !!!!
It is setting bclk correctly. CPU-Z is reading it incorrectly, that's it.
